==proposal draft corner==
===Suffix all disambiguation articles with "(disambiguation)" and convert all the non-suffixed articles into redirects===
as it stands, the way disambiguation articles are handled in mariowiki is quite inconsistent. some of them are suffixed with "(disambiguation)", and some aren't. what is the [[MarioWiki:Naming#Shared_titles|official wiki policy]] for them?

"If there are five or more pages sharing the same name, then a disambiguation page must be used, although it may be given a "(disambiguation)" qualifier if one of the articles has the plain title. For example, the article Bowser's Castle is about Bowser's home, whereas Bowser's Castle (disambiguation) also links to other uses of the name, such as the game board and baseball stadium. Game series articles always get a series identifier regardless of whether or not the title is shared, such as Mario Kart (series). When disambiguation pages are used, the articles should only link to them in {{about}} when necessary, but if a disambiguation page is not used, the articles can merely link to the other same-named page."

what are the problems with this?
*it's needlessly complicated. why five exactly?
*it requires more active maintenance than it should. keeping track of if there's more than four pages with the same name 

here's my proposed changes:

*move every disambiguation page to a version of it suffixed with (disambiguation) (ie, moving [[Chuck]]'s contents to {{Fake link|Chuck (disambiguation)}})
*convert all the non-suffixed links into a redirect to the suffixed article (ie, turning [[Chuck]] into a redirect to {{Fake link|Chuck (disambiguation)}})

====Comments====

==''Annalynn'' (PC/Switch)==
*The game's climbing mechanics are borrowed directly from ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. (game)|Donkey Kong Jr.]]'', with Annalynn climbing faster upwards if she's holding two ropes and slower if she's holding just one, and vice versa for climbing down.
*Annalynn's "''Just what I needed!''" voice clip when collecting an item references the ''[[Super Mario Advance (series)|Super Mario Advance]]'' series' use of the line.

==''Anton'' series==
*Anton's design is based on [[Wario]], while Annie was originally designed to serve as Anton's [[Mona]] before developing into her own character. Danton resembles both [[Luigi]] and [[Waluigi]].

===''Antonball'' / ''Antonball Classic'' (PC)===
[[File:References AntonballAlleyway.png|140px|thumb|right|Comparison of [[Mario]]'s sprite in ''[[Alleyway]]'' and Anton's sprite in ''Antonball Classic''.]]
*Many of the game's elements are borrowed from ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'', such as [[Floor (Mario Bros.)|floors]], Anton's death animation, the game's logo, and many sound effects.
*The voice calling the game's name in the title screen references the ''Super Mario Advance'' series' own title screens.
*The "Yeah!" voice clip at the end of the game's victory jingle mimics Mario's voice.
*Anton's sprite is an edit of Mario's sprite from ''[[Alleyway]]''.

===''Punchball Antonball'' (PC)===
*The game is heavily based on ''[[Punch Ball Mario Bros.]]''. The player uses a [[Punch Ball]] to stun enemies that come out of [[Warp Pipe|pipes]], and then kicks them to defeat them. When there's only one enemy remaining, it becomes faster.
*The game's level theme (named "Punch Bowl" in ''Antonball Deluxe'') is inspired by the Level 1 theme from the [[Game Boy Advance]] version of ''[[Mario Bros. (Game Boy Advance)|Mario Bros.]]''.

===''Antonball Deluxe'' (PC/Switch)===
[[File:References AntonballTitlescreen.png|512px|thumb|right|Title screen of ''Antonball Deluxe'', showing Anton (bottom right) and Danton (top right)'s similarity to [[Wario]] and [[Luigi]]. Also note the logo font's similarity to that of ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]''.]]
Being an enhanced and expanded remake of both ''Antonball Classic'' and ''Punchball Antonball'', most references from those games are carried on to ''Antonball Deluxe''.

*The game takes several more cues from ''Mario Bros.'', including many references to the Game Boy Advance version specifically:
**The game's sound design and compressed voice clips heavily resemble Game Boy Advance <i>Mario Bros</i>'s own.
**"Welcome to Antonball", the game's title theme, is a rearrangement of the title theme from ''Antonball Classic'', with an added initial fanfare and new instrumentation referencing the title theme from the Game Boy Advance version of ''Mario Bros.''.
**The game's round start theme, "On with the Show", is an arranged excerpt of "Spring" from {{wp|Antonio Vivaldi}}'s ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Four_Seasons_(Vivaldi) The Four Seasons]'', much like how <i>Mario Bros</i>'s [[Game Start A|own round start theme]] is an arranged excerpt of {{wp|Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart}}'s {{wp|Eine kleine Nachtmusik}}.
**The game's borders are stylized to resemble arcade <i>Mario Bros</i>'s promotional art.
**Anton's backflip move is similar to the [[Crouching High Jump]], being performed by jumping while crouching, although it does not need to be charged.
**Boiler Sewers, the game's first level, references <i>Mario Bros</i>'s sewer setting.
**Snails behave similarly to [[Freezie]]s, making the floor slippery and being destroyed with one attack instead of being stunned.
**Thunder Daves function identically to [[Fireball (obstacle)|Fireball]]s.
**The "Vs. Antonball" mode features throwable [[Trash Can|trash can]]s.

*Besides ''Mario Bros.'', ''Antonball Deluxe'' also features a few references to the ''[[Wario (franchise)|Wario]]'' franchise: 
**Anton's design becomes even closer to Wario's. His sprite while clutching resembles Wario's [[Dash Attack]]. 
**The game's unlockable vinyls reference [[''Wario Land 4'']]'s [[CD]]s.
**Wario and [[Jimmy T]] appear as "Special Thanks" in the game's credits.

*"Jam Jungle Jammin'"'s bongo and drum-only intro references "[[DK Island Swing]]".
*The "Super Gangston!" vinyl's cover references [https://www.deviantart.com/ddbug007/art/gangster-mario-48633233 an edit] of [[:File:SMS Clean Mario FLUDD Pose Artwork.png|a specific render]] of [[Mario]] and [[F.L.U.D.D.]] from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', heavily compressed and recolored to match Anton's color scheme.
*<i>Antonball</i>'s bonus stages featuring various characters' faces resembles <i>Alleyway</i>'s bonus stages featuring sprites from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''.
*DLC character "Fixed Gold Evil Baby Paul (Shiny)" references the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series' character variants, particularly [[Baby Mario]] and [[Pink Gold Peach]].

===''ANTONBLAST'' (PC/Switch)===
*The game takes greater inspiration from the ''[[Wario Land (series)|Wario Land]]'' series than it's predecessor, particularly ''Wario Land 4'' (listed as an inspiration on the [https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/summitsphere/antonblast official Kickstarter page]) and ''[[Virtual Boy Wario Land]]''.
**Anton's clutch attack from ''Antonball Deluxe'' is reworked to function closer to the [[Dash Attack]].
**Crouching on steep slopes makes Anton [[roll]].
**The game features several transformations akin to Wario's reactions, triggered by the enviroment.
***The game's angel transformations functions similarly to [[Puffy Wario]], while his petrified state resembles [[Frozen Wario]].
**Anton's laughter is created by consecutively pitching down individual "ha" soundbites, just like Wario's laugh in ''Wario Land 4''.

**The game's level structure is taken from ''Wario Land 4'', requiring the player to find a [[Switch (Wario Land 4)|Switch]]-like detonator and return to the level's entrance within a time limit, while Brulo Blocks (functioning similarly to [[Kaeru Block]]s) appear and disappear to alter the return path.
**Much like ''Virtual Boy Wario Land'', levels are built on two parallel planes that can be traversed utilizing [[Jump Transporter]]-like springs.
**Several levels feature optional rooms with a monochromatic red palette and a unique chiptune track, referencing the [[Virtual Boy]].

**The game's collectible poker chips come in red and blue, with red ones being worth more points, and giant poker chips being even more valuable. This is a similar system to <i>Wario Land 4</i>’s gems and [[diamond]]s.

**Pippos are the game's simplest enemy, are unable to deal damage to Anton, and change color from their default yellow to blue when Anton performs the [[Ground Pound]]-like "Antomic Blast" near them. If defeated while blue, they yield better score. This behavior is similar to that of [[Marumen]].
**Ballbusters, returning from the previous games, are reimagined into a second basic enemy with a pointed weapon, much like [[Pirate Goom]], [[Mask-Guy]], [[Spearhead (enemy)|Spearhead]], [[Spear-Mask]] and [[Pitchfork]].
**Beelzeballs behave identically to <i>Virtual Boy Wario Land</i>’s swinging spike balls.
**A later, larger variant of Ballbuster holds a large pitchfork in front of it, resembling the [[giant spear man]].

**Tallbuster is a long-bodied boss that pops out of gaps in the ground to attack, similar to [[Sand Fish]].


**One of the variations of Concrete Jungle's themes utilizes the same vocal sample as [[Crescent Moon Village]]'s theme, both taken from the Spectrasonics Vocal Planet series of sample CDs.
**The first theme for The Mad Mall greatly resembles [[Pinball Zone]]'s theme.
**Hell Manor, the game's final level, features a detonator at the very beginning of the stage, much like the [[Golden Passage]].

Non-Wario references:
*The game's earlier demos feature [[grass]] that can be pulled to obtain healing beetroots, much like <i>[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]</i>'s [[vegetable]]s. 
*[[Barrel Cannon]]-like cement mixers appear in most levels.
*

*Totem enemies that behave identically to [[Screaming Pillar]]s appear in Cinnamon Springs.
*Various unlockable Spray Can palettes reference the ''Mario'' franchise.
**Anton's "Warrior Land" palette references Wario's sprite in ''[[Wario Land 3]]'', while Annie's equivalent "SS Syrup" palette references [[Captain Syrup]]'s sprite in <i>[[Wario Land II]]</i>'s [[Game Boy Color]] version.
**Anton's "So Retro" palette references Mario's sprite in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''. Annie's version references Luigi's sprite.
**Anton's "Mom's Dress" palette references Wario's sprite in ''Wario Land 4''.
**Anton's "Country Monkey" palette references [[Donkey Kong]], with its description referencing <i>[[Donkey Kong 64]]</i>'s "''Oh, banana''" voice clip. Annie's version's description instead references [[Funky Kong]].
